When you want something bad enough
to go out and fight for it,
work day and night for it,
give up your time and your peace and your sleep for it;
If only the desire of it makes your aim strong enough
never to tire of it;

If life seems all empty and useless without it,
And all that you dream and you scheme is about it;
If gladly you'll sweat for it, fret for it, plan for it,
Pray with all your strength for it;
If you'll simply go after the thing that you want
with all your capacity,
Strength and sagacity;
faith, hope, and confidence, stern pertinacity;

If neither poverty nor cold nor famish nor gaunt
Nor sickness or pain of body or brain
can turn you away
From the aim that you want;
If dogged and grim,
you besiege and beset it,
you'll get it!

weekly weigh in

So I weighed my self this morning and I am now at 245! So 7 lbs down. I also lost 2 1/2 inches in my waist and 2 inches in my hips. Not bad for a weeks work. My goal of the week is to drink more water. It's just good for you.

I have also fallen in love with sugar free, noncarbonated rockstar energy drinks. I've created a poll so you could all vote on whether I need to give them up. be educated, I'm sure you can find the nutrition facts online.

That's all for now, but expect more when I have more time.

    Caffeine is terribly unhealthy and addictive. I think it is more damaging than the carbonation would be, and possibly the reason you love them so much. I voted other on your poll, my other is that you should try to get off of them and just drink water. If you need a boost during the day to stay active, try nuts or juice.

    Luckily I am not addicted to them, I had maybe 5 in my life. Now the trouble will be to get husband off of them and worse ones. Thanks for the imput, I need all the support I can get.
